Efforts to Address Climate Change in San Francisco

The purpose of this section is to address the city of San Francisco's actions regarding climate change with a focus on current and future programs and their goals. Information is contained here for the purpose of assessing our City's policies: their effectiveness and how they compare to other cities' programs in order to determine how successful our actions are in mitigating the effects of global warming. We have compiled facts and details on San Francisco's Department of the Environment's emission reduction goals, methane capture projects, green energy work, and other projects for the purpose of decreasing our overall carbon footprint. It is a work in progress, just as the fight against global warming is, and information regarding the various programs (as well as any new ones or ones not included) will be added/expanded by future Greening SF classes.
